I believe in immediate compassionate release for anyone in there for drugs or even robbery/fraud, or folks due for release in the next six months, but not everyone should be released. Remember Davis, who kidnapped and killed Polly Klass? To my surprise he is still in San Quentin, I thought he had died already. I recently read his wikipedia page and you wouldn't believe the rampages that guy went on. A woman bartender in Napa was going off shift when he confronted her as she was getting into her car, when she saw the zip ties in his hand, she knew she wasn't going to get out alive. Luckily she was prepared; she grabbed a gun from underneath her car seat and dropped and rolled past him and started shooting, he ran to protect his precious a**, unfortunately she didn't take him out.
Here's the Coronavirus Death-Row List:
"Orlando G. Romero, 48, died Aug. 2 at an outside hospital. He was sentenced in Riverside County to die for his role in a 1992 crime spree that killed three young men, two of whom were shot execution style. He also was convicted of attempted murder, kidnapping and robbery.
Johnny Avila Jr., 62, died July 26 at an outside hospital. Avila was sentenced in Fresno County to die for murdering two women, one of whom was gang-raped, on a canal bank after a rural gathering near Fresno in 1991.
